Shore Capital begins market-making in LSE stocks

15 December 1997, Reuters News

LONDON, Dec 15 (Reuters) - Smaller company specialist Shore Capital Stockbrokers Limited said on Monday it had started market-making in fully listed stocks on the London Stock Exchange.

Shore, which already makes a market in 47 stocks listed on the Alternative Investment Market, said it had started market-making in 12 companies on the Official List and intended to expand its coverage over the next few months. Stocks in the original list of 12 include Alphameric Plc, Boustead Plc and Safeland Plc.

The brokerage said it would concentrate on smaller capitalisation stocks.

Managing director Howard Shore said, "Our approach is to offer a high level of personal service to the brokers who are active in the smaller cap area."

Shore Capital debuts on AIM, profits up

16 August 2000, Reuters News

LONDON, Aug 16 (Reuters) - Shares in Shore Capital Group Plc debuted on Wednesday, as the investment bank completed its acquisition of Internet firm Jellyworks and unveiled a sharp rise in first half profits.

Its shares, trading on London's junior Alternative Investment Market, were quoted at 54-1/2 pence in volume of 200,000 by 0935 GMT. The outstanding rump of Jellyworks shares were up 3/4p or 2.8 percent at 27-1/2p.

Shore said pre-tax profits in the six months ended June 30 rose to 8.03 million pounds from 1.80 million a year earlier, on turnover which jumped 300 percent to 12.79 million pounds.

The company said it intended to pay dividends which reflect the enlarged group's operating results, financial condition and investment strategy.

With its admission to AIM, Shore's offer for Jellyworks became unconditional with 90.47 percent acceptances. Shore, which had offered one new share for two in Jellyworks, said it would apply for the delisting of Jellyworks shares as soon as practicable.

Shore Capital Chairman Howard Shore said the results reflected continuing growth in its profile, client list and franchise as well as strong market conditions.

"We believe that the acquisition of Jellyworks and our admission to AIM propel the business to a new level," Shore said. "The task now is to exploit our new position and we intend to do so vigorously, both organically and by seeking further acquisition opportunities."

Shore Capital Group has established another new property venture to invest in Germany.

The company, Puma Brandenburg Limited, will be managed by a subsidiary of Shore Capital, Puma Property Advisors Limited.

Shore Capital Trading Limited has committed to invest £5m to the new venture through a share placing.

Puma Brandenburg has been set up to invest in German residential real estate had now has a market capitalisation of £185m.

The initial focus for acquisitions will be Berlin, but the new company will also consider attractive opportunities throughout Germany. Puma Brandenburg's primary objective is to generate income and capital growth by acquiring, actively managing and selling residential real estate.

Howard Shore, director of Puma Brandenburg, said: "We have looked in depth at the German residential market and view its fundamentals as highly attractive.

"The positive yield gap and the scope for capital appreciation from active management and the potential uplift in the level of German home ownership over time make it very suitable for us to deploy techniques and structures which have worked very well in our earlier property vehicles."
